Constipation Workshop: The Perfect Poo

We are holding a three session workshop to help people manage the problem of constipation, something that affects over 60% of people with a neurological condition.

It is a difficult subject for many but an area where small changes in nutrition and lifestyle can make a big difference.

This workshop will provide information and strategies in a sensitive manner to help manage constipation.

You will need to commit to attending all three sessions (8 November, 22 November and 13 December) and there will be activities you will need to complete between sessions (e.g. keep a fluid diary for a few days).

The workshop will cover:

• What is normal
• Reasons for constipation
• Why is constipation a problem
• The role of fluid
• The role of fibre and the different types of fibre
• Importance of movement
• The role of laxatives
• Correct positioning
• When to ask for further help
